Nine Eight Five Coffee
985 S E St, San Bernardino, CA
Crema's Take
“This intentionally designed neighborhood gem in San Bernardino has earned serious local loyalty with their thoughtful espresso work and creative signature drinks that go far beyond the usual coffee shop fare—their matcha offerings in particular spark genuine enthusiasm, with regulars raving about the precise milk-to-powder ratios and inventive flavor combinations like the strawberry matcha "Te quiero." The freshly redesigned space strikes that perfect balance of feeling intimate and welcoming while maintaining the smooth operational flow that keeps the line moving, making it equally suited for a focused coffee date, a solo work session, or just connecting with neighbors who've grown tired of chain alternatives.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, matcha and tea options too, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu.
